    This week We are tackling some of Your questions on Baby Brunch!

    Minerals & Supplements: Do kids actually need them? We broke down the essentials and how to safely navigate the supplement aisle.

    "When We feel completely overwhelmed, We might describe it as a crisis..." Are we living in a time of multiple levels of crises?

    In this discussion we unpack the mental & physical process of solving 'the crisis.'

    Dr Simone Silver is our guest this week, and a specialist in the field of the Mind-Body-Health connection.

    How does stress affect our physical health? And what should we do in a time of crisis?

    We live in a culture that romanticises the resilient woman. We celebrate the mother who "does it all," the woman that smiles through the storm, and the one who keeps her household running while her own internal world is fracturing.

    When you are dealing with a personal crisis - whether it’s a career shift, a relationship ending, a health scare, or just the overwhelming realisation that you don’t know who you are anymore - you don't always want to be strong. Sometimes, you just want to speak to someone.

    And we are listening.

    "Dyslexia is not a disease." It simply needs comfort & patience...

    Taking the time to understand how dyslexia works is the first step to offer help, says our guest this week, remedial therapist, Elizna Prinsloo.

    From the age of 5, signs of dyslexia might become more prevalent, but without understanding the concept, both parents and teachers might think a child is simply stubborn or lazy. Children could be bullied, mistreated, or shunned.

    Learn more about Dyslexia in this discussion that opens our minds to a new way of thinking about this condition.

    When life takes an unexpected turn, and relationships become the prison from which we think we'll never escape... it's only a strong will, determination, and tough decisions that help us to break free.

    Stephanie Baartman is the embodiment of just that. As one of South Africa's rising stars in entertainment, on TV, theatre, and broadcast media, she is a true survivor.

    A story, not often shared, that takes a long and winding road, before Stephanie could finally break free, and start building her dream life, with her 2 beautiful children.

    Today, Stephanie is celebrating the many hats she is wearing: Lettie in Diepe Waters, hosting a radio show, showcasing her singing talent in a musical, and of course, her multi-award winning, one-woman show, "Hoort," which she is performing across South Africa.

    "PCOS" is now called "PMOS"...

    A simple name change, that makes a profound impact on women's health (and getting the correct diagnosis).

    Previously, the name referred mostly to the reproductive system, specifically, cyst related. Often, this resulted in a misdiagnosis or complete lack of support and treatment. With "PMOS" the entire endocrine (hormonal) and metabolic systems are included.

    A combination of symptoms that women have always experienced, but is now given a better description: life changing!

    In this fascinating discussion we speak with hormone specialist & medical professional, Dr Juanri Jonck, about PMOS, and what the name change really means for diagnosis.

    Women's Health is turning a corner, a remarkable change that now re-defines the understanding of so many commonly-ignored symptoms.

    Since his passing in March 2023 we still fondly remember his voice, the charming character, the reality TV shows... but mostly, the joyful manner in which he approached every challenge he faced, including the one that ultimately took his life, cancer.

    In this discussion, recorded in February 2020 (that was never broadcast), Mark reflects on his journey in radio, laughs about the hardships, candidly talks about the cancer diagnosis, the love for his children, and just being a silly Dad who lived his life to the absolute fullest until it was no more.

    This month we celebrate Father's Day with a special episode in which we remember a life that inspired many of us through the years.

    "Create the habit of cooking at home, making food with your children, and controlling the nutrients and type of food your family eats"

    Managing our Sugar intake is perhaps the key to great dental & oral health, which in turn is the foundation of good, long-term health. Eating too much sugar from a young age is in fact detrimental for our physical health as we grow older. Therefore, making meals at home, talking about food with our children, and teaching them about good oral health (where it starts) would benefit them later in life.

    This week our guest is Jade Seeliger, professional Dietitian (and mom of 3 busy kids).

    She reveals one of the tips to clever eating plans: make it simple yet beautiful, but don't get bogged down with calorie counting.

    It's the reality of growing older. But, there is hope! For this week's Podcast we invited a Biomedical Scientist and specialist in Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Dr Judey Pretorius, to give us the secrets to healthier looking skin, especially for women going through menopause.
